Oh, man...thats really nice! I can't tell for sure because of the angle, but that last pic looks like you've put ralley wheels on it.....
I'm sure you've built a model of it, right?....I must've missed it.

Thanks for the compliments, I put a ton of work into this thing and still got more that I want to do. Yeah Roadhawg Its got Rallies on it now, Got tired of chasing those big, Heavy hubcaps down the street The closest I've come to building one is this Bubbletop, But I'm gathering up the parts to do an Impala hardtop using the convertible body and the roof from the 62 Catalina. 62 BelAir Bubbletop: Bobby, I'm sure you will see it in person eventually. It's been in my garage for about 3 years now due to a power steering leak but I'm hoping to have it out this year.

Yeah Bobby I'm supposed to weld new floor pans in it and then in the very near future it's cutting torch time....454 big block and a 4 speed (as Gary says "Insert Tim Taylor grunt here")

That is one nice "toy" you got there Ed! Nice model too. I think it would be cool to have a model of the car as it sits in the first pic. You could have before and after models. That would look good on the contest table.
